| No sound Well, I hooked up the Sys, and lo and behold, I got sound. Of course it’s primitive compared to my CJ preamp but over all, not too bad. I was surprised to hear the Schiit Sys being compared as 'not too bad' to a CJ preamp. I had the Sys before... | |
| Need recommendations for high gain/small footprint class d amplifier @lcherepkai in my custom speakers, which I was told should be about a 3 ohm load. It seems like you never measure your custom speakers. Try using REW to measure the impedance-phase angle versus frequency yourself, and then compute the EPDR usi... | |
| Need recommendations for high gain/small footprint class d amplifier If you decide to go with Hypex NCORE like Buckeye, spend a little ($300) more to get NCOREx line such as NCx500 instead of NC502MP. The amplification efficiency (A.E.) is better for handling lower impedance loads https://www.buckeyeamp.com/shop/a... | |

| Dynaudio Special 40's vs Wharfedale Super Lintons Based on the size of your room (13’ x 14’ x 7’), the Linton might be a bit too large for your space. The Linton is known for its expansive soundstage. In a larger area like my living room (21’ x 23’ x 10’), it projects a huge soundstage that exten... | |
| Dynaudio Special 40's vs Wharfedale Super Lintons I like both, and I think categorizing them into two different tiers is biased. Wharfedale’s low-end products, such as the Diamond 225, are also highly rated. At $350, the Diamond 225 is no slouch when compared to the Evoke 20 at $2,400. Your perce... | |
| Is there any such thing as a bad sounding DAC these days? Audiogoners have become more civilized. Regarding the sound quality of the Benchmark DAC3, I recall making no negative comments myself. I simply referenced GoldenSound’s review, which also made no negative comments—just described it as ’fine.’ Let... | |
| Qutest LPS upgrade @signaforce Please report back with your experience with the Ultra. At almost the same time, I ordered the LHY 15VA (5V/3A) LPS from AliExpress. I’ve heard good feedback from both reviewers and end users. Vinshine has used it for several upgrade... | |
| Is there any such thing as a bad sounding DAC these days? I am not strictly an ASR measurement guy—I value the listening experience much more than the measurements. However, for an (R2R) DAC that measures as poorly as any I’ve ever seen and yet sounds good in your system, I would say there is no single ... | |
| Qutest LPS upgrade I am not suggesting anything; I just wonder from which package you receive your experience. Just FYI, acording to a reliable source, the BOTW P&P ECO provides a ripple voltage of less than 0.5 mV (= 500 µV) under full load conditions for 5-6 ... | |
| Qutest LPS upgrade congratulate! Do you have ultra added on or just eco? | |
| Ypsilon DAC-100? If you have that kind of money, why not consider the Mola Mola Tambaqui? It's well-reviewed and highly regarded by prestigious reviewers and audiophiles. | |
| KEF R3 META or Dynaudio Special 40? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCOfGmUdhjo | |
| KEF R3 META or Dynaudio Special 40? You probably need sub in to have more satisfactory fuller range sound experience with KEF (58hz -3dB). At $1400, Special 40 (41hz -3dB) is a no brainer, more dynamic and punchier than KEF. Let me know where is the deal in case if you don’t want it... | |
| I feel for you @devinplombier Yes, simply de-solder the original passive crossover connection and solder new cables from amplifiers directly to each driver of both channels once the active speaker system is built. Spatial Sapphire older / discontinued models are... |
